- Meeting Overview:
In a recent meeting, the West Windsor Planning Board reviewed the township’s upcoming affordable housing obligations and approved several resolutions, including plans for a Chick-fil-A and updates to Market Fair site lighting. The board addressed the implications of the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs’ fourth round of affordable housing requirements, emphasizing the township’s need to satisfy its obligations by adopting a housing element and fair share plan by mid-2025.
The board’s discussion on affordable housing revealed that West Windsor Township must accommodate 661 units as part of the regional need, with deadlines set for adopting necessary plans and entering settlement agreements. The board emphasized the importance of strategizing to meet these obligations efficiently, considering both the pros and cons of developing new affordable housing projects. The committee involved in this discussion includes experienced members who can lend expertise to the township’s efforts.
Additionally, the board approved the resolution for a Chick-fil-A preliminary and final major site plan, which included addressing a correction related to electric vehicle supply equipment terminology in the documentation. This correction ensures clarity in the planning process. Furthermore, the board approved updates to the Market Fair site lighting, which required a minor correction involving attendance records.
